Daily Faceoff’s Steven Ellis posted a list of the ten best goaltending prospects in the NHL as of this summer, and, going into the 2023-2024 season, he believes that Sebastian Cossa sits right in the middle of the rankings:
5. Sebastian Cossa, 20 (Detroit Red Wings): Cossa’s first pro season saw the 6-foot-6 keeper thrive with the ECHL’s Toledo Walleye. Playing 46 games as a 20-year-old is no small feat, and he even got into some AHL competition in the first half with Grand Rapids. He had some interesting outings, to say the least, but he’s athletic, competitive and uses his size to his advantage. He’s still a work in progress, but with the right coaching, the upside is incredible.
